Backport of #27968 to release/v7.6.7

Triggered by Aditya Patwardhan (@adityapatwardhan) on behalf of Justin Chung (@jshigetomi)

Original CL Label: CL-BuildPackaging

/cc @PowerShell/powershell-maintainers

Impact

REQUIRED: Choose either Tooling Impact or Customer Impact (or both). At least one checkbox must be selected.

Tooling Impact

Required tooling change
Optional tooling change (include reasoning)

Required Microsoft Store release-pipeline change: keeps localized listing content static in the PDP, substitutes only version-specific release-note placeholders, removes conflicting AppStoreName mutation, and supplies StoreBroker v3's required paired PDP/media-root inputs.

Customer Impact

Customer reported
Found internally

Regression

REQUIRED: Check exactly one box.

This is not a regression.

Testing

No automated tests were added because this changes Store pipeline and listing metadata. Recovery validation confirmed the worktree is clean, no conflict markers remain, and git diff --check upstream/release/v7.6.7..HEAD passes. The adapted resolution was compared with the already merged v7.5 backport (#28063); CI will provide the required pipeline validation before merge.

Risk

REQUIRED: Check exactly one box.

High
Medium
Low

High risk because this changes Microsoft Store packaging and publishing metadata across release channels. The backport is narrowly scoped to the original change, preserves the release branch's PDP directory layout, matches the already merged v7.5 backport strategy, and will receive full CI validation before merge.

Merge Conflicts

.pipelines/templates/package-store-package.yml conflicted because release/v7.6.7 uses the legacy .pipelines/store/PDP/PDP layout while the original PR uses .pipelines/store/PDPs/PDP. Removed the obsolete AppStoreName mutation as intended, preserved the release-branch PDP path, and pointed pdpMediaPath at that same PDP root to satisfy StoreBroker v3 without a media tree. Verified no conflict markers remain and git diff --check passes.

Sorry, something went wrong.

Uh oh!
